Rewriting URLs with htaccess, multiple parameters - apache

Question

I'm trying to rewrite something like this:
https://mywebsite.com/pages/article.html?id=1&title=Title-Goes-Here
into
https://mywebsite.com/pages/article/1/Title-Goes-Here
Using this Rewrite Rule
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^article/([0-9]+)/([0-9a-zA-Z_-]+)$ article.html?id=$1&title=$2 [NC,L]
However, when I try this code in https://htaccess.madewithlove.com/ it gives me
This rule was not met.
Also tried it on my website htaccess file with no result. I don't know where is the problem.

Answer 1

Please don't create OR test rules on online sites, they are NOT trust worthy, so kindly test these rules into your localhost OR apache.
With your shown samples/attempts, please try following htaccess rules. Considering that you are hitting URL https://mywebsite.com/pages/article.html?id=1&title=Title-Goes-Here in browser AND you want to redirect it to URL https://mywebsite.com/pages/article/1/Title-Goes-Here in browser.
Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
##External redirect in browser rules here....
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$

##Internal rewrite to html file rules here....
